Davis Love Story Photography Workshop | The Results



Finally, some amazing results from our DAVIS LOVE STORY WORKSHOP in Bel Air, MD. Again, we were blessed indeed with a fabulous group of attendees from all over the country! THANK YOU so much for coming from near and far to hang with us for 2 days! The images I've seen come from you all were mind blowing and I can't wait to feature them on our NEW workshop website.

Bob and I decided we would make this a family road trip from Chicago to Maryland. So the four of us hit the road and didn't look back. It was Bob's idea to stop at every state "Welcome To" sign and take a picture. That was actually fun. I twittered our entire trip there. Every ten minutes we had to pull over because Bob wanted to snap a few photos or someone had to use, well, you know! Needless to say, it took us 3 days to get there! We did stop in Cincinnati, Ohio to visit with my brother. I'm so glad we did that. Thank you Scotty for spending time with us!

By the time we made it to Maryland, we arrived at the home of the Hancock family.... tired and exhausted. Our dear friend Kristie of Kristie Blake Photography and her husband, Shane, took us in and treated us like family. Kristie, was one of our Vegas Love Story workshop attendees turned greatest friend...!!! We have vacationed together many times since then. Oh the fun! This trip, we decided that before the workshop started we would drag our families to New York for quite the adventure. We had a blast!!! Thank you guys for opening your home to us and for your treasured friendship. We love you to pieces!

The workshop began with a meet and greet at Kristie's home. I absolutely LOVED meeting everyone! Even some wonderful people who weren't attendees came a long way just to meet us. Thank you! As you can tell from the photos, we had a wild bunch... beginning with Kristie!!! The next 2 days Bob spent sharing techniques on how to master their flash and work with strobes. We also shared our workflow from capture to output. We spoke a lot about marketing and sales. We can't stress enough how important it is to sell yourself as opposed to your photography. Bob and I are big into vision boards so I designed one for each of our attendees. I think they were a big hit...! Use them well everyone, nurture them and they will be good to you!

Thank you to all our new friends. You believed in us. We believe in you. We are a perfect fit! Bob and I want so much to see you succeed. Please know that we are always here for you if you have questions or need us for anything!

We can't thank Kristie enough for helping us out with this workshop! And our dear friend, Armin DeFiesta who scouted most of the models... and Kristie too! And having Dave Piazza from FJ Westcott at our workshop was a real treat!!! This workshop was a success because of all of you! We couldn't have done this without your help!

Life is a journey, only you hold the map...

Grace Ormonde | Platinum Listing 2009 & 2010



I know, call me silly for being excited about spending advertising dollars but I cannot be more happy to be advertising with Grace Ormonde in their Platinum Listing for 2009 & 2010. We've never advertised before and we have decided this year to give it a try and see the goodness that comes from it. And what better magazine than Grace Ormonde Wedding Style. Thank you to our sweet and super funny friend, Ray Santana for hooking us up! You are the best and we love you! If you are a photographer reading this, check out Ray's Pro Photo Hub. It's a great resource to find all the newest and best tools!

The Creators | Meet Brock and Dave



We have received dozens of emails asking if I designed our blog. I wish I could say it was all me but that would be a big fat lie. The amazing guys at Infinet Design made the magic happen. Brock Martin and Dave Warfel are SO PATIENT and so talented, I bow down to them and tell them they ROCK every time I send them an email or talk to them on the phone. I swear they are the masters at making you feel like you are their only client. And I can tell you that is not true! Their waiting list is long but it's so worth the wait. So, if you're wanting a kick butt new blog, these are your guys!
